PLEASE HELP ME! I'm CONSTIPATED!

[nikkibear]

OK -- I need some advice here. I didn't want to have to ask this, but if its happening to me, then surely it is happening to SOMEONE -- ANYONE else! I AM CONSTIPATED!!! I feel as though I have tried everything. I drink water CONSTANTLY. ALSO -- (well, this is probably a result of the other "issue") my skin is breaking out and when I shave, I have been getting ingrown hairs like crazy. DOes anyone else have this problem? WHat do I do?

I hear you - and know just how you feel. If it's gotten too bad, you may have to resort to drastic measures. I took some little white pills they gave me in Tahiti (I always get backed up when travelling) and I don't know the name. I got them at a pharmacy there. Just go get an over the counter laxative. You'll feel better, and then you can start over. You must consume mass quantities of fiber. I eat a small bowl of Kashi every morning. I take 2 or 3 Fibercon tablets each day. I also eat quite a lot of fruits and veggies. This seems to work okay, as long as I keep my water consumption up. I hope this helps!

Thank you, Nal. i thought about the laxative route, then I wondered if it woud be alright to take the two together. i think I will take your suggestion tho'.
